Why doesn't my heart keep beating if my brain dies then? Or would it?
- kampsun 2y agoI understand that it would keep beating until you are provided oxygen. That’s my understanding understanding of brain death at least.
- oharapj 2y agoProbably because the brain controls breathing and so the oxygen runs out quickly
- 8n4vidtmkvmk 2y agoI was going to say that's silly, but I guess we need to be able to hold our breath sometimes.
